Special Notes: This is a well-made knockoff of the Wham-O Pro Model. There are several variations of this mold. Some have "Летающая тарелка" engraved on the top in large letters which means "Flying Saucer" in Russian, others have "Lidojosais Šķīvis
" which is the same in Latvian. On the bottom is "Ц o,50Py5" in small type. Part of that translates to the price: 0.50 Russian rubles. The symbol on the top side is repeated very small on the bottom under the text. The Ministry Of Chemical Industry of the Soviet Union's plastics processing plant was in Olaine, Latvian Soviet Socialist Republic at the time where this disc was likely made.
